Although this book is better written than the first, it still has its problems. First, why is everyone described by their height and hair color? Not only that but the description never has anything remotely to do with the context of the scene or even the thought being presented. If the writer was so concerned with height and hair color he should have put forth more effort to integrate those attributes into the thought processes of the protagonist. Second, I'm having more Honor Harrington flashbacks. Valor At VauzleeI strongly recommend you read the previous book in the series (A Galaxy Unknown) prior to reading this book.What an outstanding second installment; I literally couldn't put this book down! It was exciting from start to finish and left me salivating for more!As with the previous installment, the only negative aspect of this book is sometimes the author would drone on just a bit too long on the technical aspect of the story. After I finished this book, I felt like I lost my best friend. I already miss the characters, the excitement and adventure.To those fellow dark urban fantasy readers, looking for a good SF but don't want to end up with space romance; I highly recommend this book to you, as the style of writing is similar to an urban fantasy read. I eagerly and impatiently await the next book The Clones of Mawcett .I also recommend:Song of ScarabaeusBitter Night: A Horngate Witches BookRed-Headed Stepchild (Sabina Kane)On the Edge (The Edge, Book 1)Black Magic Sanction (Rachel Morgan, Book 8)
What do You think about Valor At Vauzlee (2000)?
Just finished this. I must say it is very gripping stuff and enjoyable to read as well
